Thanks to this information age, I get my food for thought on the click of the mouse button! I surf for just about everything, but one thing I love most when I am there is keeping an update on the new developments in the field of Human Resources.
Past decade has seen the role of Human Resource mangers changing spectacularly with vigorous automation happening in almost all the functional areas of this domain. You name it, you have it- there are solutions available for all HRD activities, from helping Managers plan, recruit, select, train, develop to retain members for an organization. Also, Human Resource Information System has made the mundane activities such as managing payrolls, planning compensation and benefits, recording time, attendance and time offs, managing timesheets, locating lost pay stubs, enrolling and managing benefits, etc, a paperless simple to do task.
If you are concerned about how to get latest on what technology will cater to your organization needs, then here is what I do. Let me share with you the best way to keep posted on what new HR technology is on the block. Whitepapers is one of the best sources of technical information on subjects of interest. Technology explained in day to day terms, well that’s what most of us need, a remedy from the heavy world of jargons IT is fully loaded with. These documents are created to help technology novices like us in the use of a particular piece of hardware or software. Mostly some kind of extra or advanced help is provided that goes beyond the normal manual set of instructions for a particular product or item. White Papers can provide special or advanced instructions on special features or methods. It would be interesting to mention here a very good white paper I came across recently. The paper discusses Paid Time Off Tracking and Management issues as a detailed financial case. Full of vital information, it came to me as an eye opener in more than one way. Can you beat that an HR department can generate 1200% Return on Investment using online paid time off solutions!!! It is a good guide on how to calculate potential savings using financial analysis. However, the icing on the cake is a caselet on PLAYBOY, describing how the company saved real bucks managing their time off’s. You may wanna take a look at this paper for deeper insights. Paid Time Off Free (PTO) White Paper. In addition, I suggest checking other whiter papers on this link, good source of information. Then we all know how to use search engines like Yahoo and Google to dig for more white papers.
